‘Lectric lady...




Carol Williams is an American singer-songwriter whose main particularity, apart from being a singer, is to be the first woman to have signed with the Disco Salsoul Records label.


Singer who released a first Single "Rattlesnake" in 1975, a Single which unfortunately went somewhat unnoticed. Just like "Just feel" which came out a year later in 1976...


Also the same year released the title "More" and there the singer will finally reap the fruits of her efforts with a first major success. Success which sees the release of the album "Ectric lady" in stride.


Album which will also contain the blockbuster Singles "Come back" and "Love is you".


The sequel will prove to be a little more complicated to manage than expected with a change of label to arrive at Quality Records and especially the release of a new album "Reflections of Carol Williams" with limited success to say the least...


She will save the furniture in extremis in 1982 with the Singles "Can't get away (from your love)" and "You've reached the bottom line" in 1983, two titles which will be the last to know the favors of the public...


To discover or rediscover.

Clips :


1975 ... a first title that fits perfectly with the times but that will not be enough to offer the young singer her first major success ...



1976...she shows from the outset a versatility of style that is more than promising with this title full of finesse and lightness. A versatility that still does not want to pay more than that unfortunately...



1976... she will finally begin to reap the fruits of her efforts with this first success. It was obvious that this was bound to happen at one time or another...



1977...success which is confirmed with this new title. It will have just taken 2 years for the singer to finally get people talking about her as it should be, a performance that is worth highlighting all the same...



1977...so far everything is going as it should. It remains to be seen whether she will be able to do it in the long term and that only the future can tell us...



1979...unfortunately the sequel will be a little more complicated to manage than expected with a pure and simple disappearance from the Charts...



1979...and yet she is far from unworthy, that's clear. But she didn't see the competition take a step ahead and suddenly she found herself at the back of the pack without realizing it...



1979...now remains to be seen whether she will have the strength and above all the desire to return to the race. To be continued as they say...



1980...she will have the strength to continue but that will not mean that success will be back. After all, everything is possible as they say...



1981... in music nothing is ever finished and it could be that the future will demonstrate it to her in a more than certain way...



1982...the proof with THIS title ! She will return to the front of the stage in an unexpected way and prove in a brilliant way that we will still have to count on her in the years to come...



1982...two titles released during this year 1982 and two classified titles, what more could you ask for ? We weren't expecting so much, that's for sure...



1983...the beautiful adventure continues even more with this new hit which clearly proves to her that she was absolutely right to continue to believe in it !



1986...we suspected that this return to grace might not last but no matter, the essential is done as they say. Everything else is just a bonus...



1986...a year 1986 which will be her last, despite the release of titles of certain quality. A career that will have taken place over ten years with the key to great success on several occasions, a more than positive assessment !
